Welcome to Bimmerfest -- The #1 Online Community for BMW related information! Please enjoy the discussion forums below and share your experiences with the 200,000 current, new and past BMW owners.

To determine your I-Level, go to VCM Module => VCM Master Tab => click Read under I-Steps. The I-Step (current) is the one you want to match when you select the CAFD from the "Detect CAF for SWE" options (e.g. F001-08-09-550).

Car is F10 build 03/12 at iLevel 48.3 with Combox fitted from factory but no BMWW Live / Internet activated.
Car has 609, 6FL, 6NF, 6VC, 644 from factory so only standard bluetooth and USB audio is working in Combox.

Now i have Internet and BMW Live menu items under BMW Services.
Update Services works correct, car connects via my iPhone 5 and i get Update Services Successful.

When i try to start BMW Live or Internet, car connects to my iPhone, i get the standard message "Connecting via iPhone, Bluetooth Audio is not availalble bla, bla, bla" and after few seconds i get the message "HOMEPAGE NOT AVAILALBLE, please try again later". This message is for both BMW Live and Internet.

Now i am stuck, as i checked all coding and is correct, i tried different VINs and i get same result.

I guess that the configuration set stored in CIC or Combox does not point to the correct ip address for homepage or at least this is my understanding.

I see many lines in CIC and Combox with "config_index" or "des_index" which can be coded in many ways.

Can somebody point me to the right direction, i know i am close but i can't point the finger to the problem.

Yes i actually used 3 different vins. One of them is from a bmw x5 which works for sure as i used it before in my car e93 with retrofited cic/combox. All of them had the same result (home page not available, please try later) like the cic looks for an invalid ip address/web page when trying to connect to bmw live / internet.

After you chnaged Copmbox VIN, if you read combox in E-Sys, did it show new VIN?

And with new VIN showing, did you update services?

And afterwards under Available Services, does it show Internet and BMW Live as being available?

Yes, of course, when i click on Internet menu item car starts connection with iphone, i get the teethering message on iphone and i get the standard message on cic "connecting to internet via iphone, bluetooth audio is not available during data transffer". Message stays like this for about 5 seconds and then i get "Homepage not available, please try later!" Only after i get this message teethering message goes out on iphone. In different car my E93, with same vin coded in combox and same phone everything works perfectly. My interpretation of the error is like this: somewhere in combox software there are some ip addresses for bmw live server and internet start-up page as internet is working via proxy. I guess that this settings are not the same for each country/region therefor in the combox coding there are some lines defining "config index" something simillar with lets say mobile phone internet settings configurations where you have APN and proxy settings. In my E93 combox is coded to use config index 6, in F10 which first i coded based on the modified VO, it went to config index 4. I manually change it to config index 6 but no luck, can you please check your car and tell me in combox what value you have for config index and des index?

Is BMW Live working, and under options did you change your home country to Germany?

I thought maybe this would be the key for Internet-In-Motion, but it is already set as Inactive:

SL12_BMW_INTERNET = nicht_aktiv / Werte=00

Maybe it needs Werte=FF?

These may be the culprits though:

SL06_IBA_1 = aktiv
SL07_IBA_2 = aktiv
SL21_IBA_3 = aktiv

If you have time, maybe you can play with them and see if you can disable the Internet Speedlock.

Dear Shawn,
First I would like to congratulate about all your posts...You are a genius.
So now, I have a Germany F30 in Brazil with Navigation and BT, and I change the 6NH to 6NL to activation BT AUDIO and OFFICE.
IN CAFD I changed some parameters to have Internet in Service, and yesterday I made my first connection in some sites.
Today I received a message that the Internet can't estabilish connection...so what is my problem? Can you please help me?
I tried change the parameters to have internet in motion too, but nothing yet was discovery.
Another point, I have an iPhone 5 (ios 6) with the lastest updated from BMW, but I can't read any messages or email, any solution for this?
Thanks for everything.
Regards.
Marcelo
